WHAT IS TIME MANAGEMENT?

• Time management is the process of planning and exercising conscious

control of time spent on specific activities, especially to increase
effectiveness, efficiency, and productivity.

• Time management is usually a necessity in any project development  as it

determines the project completion time and scope. 

• A time management system is a designed combination of processes, tools,

techniques, and methods. 
MOST IMPORTANT TIME MANAGEMENT SKILLS:

• Prioritizing.
• Delegation.
• Decision-making.
• Goal setting.
• Multitasking.
• Problem solving.
• Strategic thinking.
• Scheduling.
IMPORTANCE OF TIME MANAGEMENT:

• Time is limited. No matter how you slice it, there are only 24 hours in a day. That applies to you,
and to your coworker who only seems able to do half the amount of work you do. But it also
applies to the former coworker who consistently accomplishes more than you, and was
promoted as a result. If you want to rise through the ranks, you have to acknowledge the
importance of finding a way to manage this limited resource.

• Improved decision-making ability. Whether you rely on a time-chunking technique or discover

the power of list-making, you’ll soon find that a nice side benefit of good time management skills
is the ability to make better decisions. When you feel pressed for time and have to make a
decision, you’re more likely to jump to conclusions without fully considering every option. 
• Become more successful in your career. Time management is the key to success. It allows
you to take control of your life rather than following the flow of others. As you accomplish
more each day, make more sound decisions, and feel more in control, people notice. Leaders
in your business will come to you when they need to get things done. 

• Learning opportunities are everywhere. Obviously, the more you learn, the more valuable
you are to your employer. And great learning opportunities are around you, if you’ve got time
to stop and take advantage them.When you work more efficiently, you have that time. 

• Reduce stress. When you don’t have control of your time, it’s easy to end up feeling rushed
and overwhelmed. And when that happens, it can be hard to figure out how long it’s going to
take to complete a task. 

• Self-discipline is valuable. When you practice good time management, you leave no room
for procrastination. The better you get at it, the more self-discipline you learn. This is a
valuable skill that will begin to impact other areas of your life where a lack of discipline has
kept you from achieving a goal.
 TIME MANAGEMENT TECHNIQUES:

• Pomodoro Technique- Developed in the late 1980s by Francesco Cirillo, the Pomodoro Technique is centred
on the idea that work should be broken down and completed in intervals separated by short breaks. 
• Getting Things Done (GTD)- The GTD method, developed by David Allen, starts by getting the user to
write down all the things he wants or needs to do, and then break them into smaller actionable items. 
• Rapid Planning Method (RPM)- Created by Anthony Robbins, RPM aims to transform your thinking by
causing you to focus on what is truly important, that is, the results that you want. It also focuses on the
reasons why you want it. Constructing a flexible plan to achieve it is the next step. 
• Important-Urgent Matrix- Popularized by Stephen Covey’s “The Seven Habits of Highly
Effective People”, this 2x2 matrix is another method to help users manage their time more
effectively. On one axis, users classify tasks that are important and not important. Urgent
and not urgent tasks go on the other axis. The result is 4 quadrants: tasks that are important
and urgent, important but not urgent, not important but urgent, and lastly not important and
not urgent.

• 168 Hours- 168 hours — that’s the number of hours there are in a week. And that’s how
author Laura Vanderkam proposes we look at our schedule — one week at a time. By
reorganizing your time according to your priorities, you can cut down on misused time that
comes from misplaced priorities or excuses.
